Memorial Day originated in 1868, when Union General John A. Logan designated
a day in which the graves of Civil War soldiers would be decorated.
Known as Decoration Day, the holiday was changed to Memorial Day within
twenty years, becoming a holiday dedicated to the memory of all war dead. It
became a federal holiday in 1971, and is now observed on the last Monday in
May.
There is also a Confederate Memorial Day, which is celebrated on various
days in spring in some of the southern states.
